Relevant literature & tools

Task 1: Automatic summarization tools

• Popular rankers are Anserini/Pyserini or trained neural rankers on HuggingFace.
• The track makes an elastic search API available to registered participants.

Task 2: Terminology management tools

• IDF: Robertson, S. (2004), “Understanding inverse document frequency: on theoretical arguments for IDF”, Journal of Documentation, Vol. 60 No. 5, pp. 503-520. https://doi.org/10.1108/00220410410560582

Task 3: Text simplification tools

• JURASSIC: AI21 Studio provides access to Jurassic-1 suite of language models. Jurassic-1 Jumbo is the largest model publicly available with no waitlist. The AI21 studio’s playground provides ready-to-use promts for text simplification (see De-Jargonizer) https://www.ai21.com/studio
• GPT-2 is a large-scale unsupervised language model which performs machine translation, question answering, and summarization without task-specific training https://github.com/openai/gpt-2
• Multilingual T5 (mT5) transformer model can be fine-tuned for text simplification e.g. by using SimpleT5 library. https://github.com/google-research/multilingual-t5
